Blaue Blume have kickstarted 2023 with their optimistic and catchy new single, “Crush” today. The track marks a departure in sound and the beginning of a more blissful, uplifting chapter to the Copenhagen three-piece’s journey. Listen to the sparkling new song now below.
“’Crush’ is pretty much about getting your relationship to sparkle again when you both get stuck in all the practical stuff and everyday life. The song is about dancing and making out again with the one you went out of your way to get, reminding yourself that you really shouldn’t take love for granted. ‘Crush’ is a tribute to girlfriends and boyfriends,” lead singer, Jonas Schmidt, explains.
Along with drummer, Søren Buhl Lassen, and guitarist, Buster Jensen, Blaue Blume is a band of few in Denmark to claim a wide crowd of fans while never letting go of their artistic identity and shared ambition to always challenge one another. So when ‘Crush’, in all its sheer lightness, embraces a direct simplicity, it really is a complex musical move by Jonas, Søren and Buster whose common bond once again shines through.
‘Crush’ will be followed by a brand new Blaue Blume-EP out later this year. This Spring, the band will also embark on a tour of Denmark, hopefully adding more dates abroad in 2023.
